Pros
1. Friendly, supportive, and cooperative colleagues.
2. Technically capable teammates who are easy to work with.
Cons
1. Below-market salaries, minimal increments, and frequent salary delays.
2. Engineers are expected to do more while receiving fewer benefits.
3. Limited opportunities to work on modern or technically challenging projects, restricting career growth.
4. Management rarely considers employee feedback before making decisions.
5. The COO lacks sufficient technical, business, or management knowledge. His excessive micromanagement reduces productivity and employee autonomy.
6. The QA team frequently fails to catch issues before release, allowing defects to reach customers while developers take the blame.
7. The IT department often creates unnecessary obstacles. Blocking GitHub access through their network was one example.
8. Strict attendance policies lead to leave or salary deductions for late arrivals or working less than nine hours.
9. Management promotes a factory-style work culture instead of a modern software engineering culture.
